Stephen L. Chipman, chairman, and Clifford E. Young, WUford W Wamick, Thomas A. Walker and Leo G Meredith of the Cave com nuttce attended the meeting. Fea ture of the session were reports uf the past year's activities, and plans for the future program at the national, na-tional, monument. The financial report, presented by Leo G. Meredith, treasurer, showed a balance of cash on hand, on December De-cember 31, 1938, of $1967.31 The improvement program carried car-ried on during 1938, to open the Middle cave, involved an expendi ture of $3000 from local funds for lighting materials. All new development develop-ment work has been under federal ERA projects, with the Cave com mittee contributing the $3000 toward the financing. Now that the Middle cave is illu minated with indirect lighting, with the most modern type of fixtures, it is considered practical to replace the entire lighting system, of the old Tlmpanogos cave including the wlr ing, to bring it in harmony with the new Middle cave installations! Some $600 to $800 will be required to re place the present fixtures with new ones. Some cable and other material ma-terial being available from the Mid dle cave project, it will not be necessary neces-sary to buy this type of material; hence, money expended In this proj ect will go toward purchase of fix tures. Twenty-six men are now working on this phase of the project, and work is expected to be completed com-pleted by the end of April. Since the National Parks Service took over the administration of the national monument, some $20,000 has been appropriated for development develop-ment work for Tlmpanogos cave. Prior to this time, no funds whatsoever what-soever other than funds derived from cave entrance fees have been used in this national monument. All development work on the cave, trails, comfort stations, tables and benches, together with some cooperative coop-erative expenditures with the forest service in years past in installing recreational facilities In American Fork canyon, and together with-the tower on Mt. Tlmpanogos, has been financed out of local cave funds. It is planned, within the next three to six years, to establish a new office, store building, and dwelling at the Cave Camp grounds, and to make this a center for public recrea tion. The development work In opening the new cave system has made Tlmpanogos cave one of the outstanding out-standing national monuments of the country, and the proposed improvements improve-ments are expected to add still further fur-ther to Its importance as a scenic and recreational attraction. Although the official opening date Is Sunday, April 30, the cave Is now open to visitors, and tho service of mitrA A a mmUahla Tfo rYY no A Walker, national parks ranger, art-T nounced. P.-T. A.
